Because missing the big picture is something we're really good at … thanks for zooming out for us!

They don't build 'em like they used to!

Just one question: with regards to Schafer and his RFMM cult's attempt to raise the “immortal baby” Baby Jean, I wonder if Baby Jean is still alive? As of 2002, Jean Gauntt (Baby Jean) was married with children. That's as much as I've been able to ascertain.

“How blessed am I to live surrounded with such beauty, charm and history?” — So much more than we only ever rarely acknowledge … in moments such as this. Cool!

I dont know the whereabouts of Baby Jean. I do know there are ghosts in this village.

I was mostly curious because ... when she dies I'll finally be able to put a number on how long immortality is.

Anthony—

Thank you, my friend, for sharing a bit of the history and your experience now directly in midst of it — and for which I'll quote G.K. Chesterton to paraphrase:

"Gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder."

Wishing you continued success in your good (and more important now than ever) artistic endeavors.

Peace
